Make more money, works like a charm!

Spend less money, not as fun as SC1 but it still works

Learn what jobs/industries/companies pay well, start leaning your career trajectory in their direction. In 3 years I’ve gone from 80k>>120k>>155k and this year I should pull in at or over 200k. I work in data analytics and consulting

You think bitcoin is too high at 4200?
I think it's overshot in the interim /short term but on an absolute long term hold probably cheap
But obviously no cash flows or assets to value so difficult to put a number on it. But I could probably see it going to 20,000 long term. That would make it a 250bn market cap, which is 5% of the 4T FX market. Maybe that's too much - thoughts?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
